But few months ago we were call
ed upon to chronicle the death of Jo-
seph Y. Cheney. Again has death en-
tered our midst iu the same family,
Miss Kate j. Cheney passed away from
the world Monday evening the 9th.
Miss Kate had never wholly recovered
from the severe physical strain Incl
dent to the care of her mother after
the accident which happened to her
some six years ago, although she was
the picture of rugged, robust health.
For five long, painful weeks she was
most patient and self-forgetful suffer-
er. During the last ten days of her
illness, Inconsistencies held uninter-
rupted sway and she passed away with
out having given the recognition so az
IDENTITY longed fol by her brother and
sister. She was for two years teacher
in our village school. filling the posi-
ton most acceptably. For the same
length of time she was employed in
like capacity at Lisbon where she made
many friends and met with much suc-
cess. She possessed eminent qualifica-
tons for teaching and had the circum-
stances of her life been such as to have
allowed her to follow this vocation,
she would have taken very high rank
as teacher. From Lisbon she was
called back to Woodsville by the sad
accident which happened to her moth
er, on Thanksgiving day, 1881. She
exhibited rare spirit of self sacrifice
and no pains were spared in affording
her father and sister pleasant, CHEEKY
home. "A woman of much force and
depth of character of pronounced con-
vlctlon but withal overshadowed by all
those qualities which shine out most
conspicuously in pure true woman
hood. Our sympathies 60 out to the
objects of her tenderest affection,

dence in the country, recalls to mind
his advent into Hanover about the pro.

came financially embarrassed, Morton
purchased the little stock and changed
hi, narrow quarters for Nos. 5, 6 and
Z Tontine building, into which he piled
q heavy stock and made every article
count double, invigorating a system of
sensational advertising and excellency
in every quality of a salesman. The
"mammoth store" became the centre
of attraction and the largest trading
house in the country. Want of capital
brought the fearless youngster at one
time into straits, but his tact and vim
took him through and an enlarged bus
mess followed the partial failure. At
the end of nine years of complete sue
cess, he sold out to his clerks, Dan.
forth, Dewy and Pike, to enter larg-

How Emil lola Works.

lola writes everything himself he never
has secretary for his extensive corre-
spondence. He even seals his wrappers and
addresses them when he sends his friends
brochures or his translators material. He
also writes his literary manuscript himself.
Out of it the printers compose what are
called ''placards," large pages with four
gigantic columns of text. These are sent
to the author carefully revised and free
from errors, and then lola begins to COR
rect He fills the wide margin all round
with hundreds of marks and letters ink
lines cut through the text, thin threads run
crossways and diagonaNy, entwining like
lasso a sentence scrubbed in an open space;
scarcely line is exempted from the hero
glyphics of the master. Here note of in.
terrogation must make room for one of ex-
clamation; here a semicolon is changed into
full point a comma before or after the
ct effectively divides phrase; participles
are replaced by adjectives; substantives
take the place of pronouns; redundant ad-
verbs must also disappear; "the past
definite'' is substituted for the Imperfect"
more descriptive words supply the place Of
tame ones: for an expression repeated i'll
five or six pages synonym is introduced;
whole phrases are remodeled, sentences are
condensed into two or three words, and
even half columns are ruthlessly consigned
at once into the compositor's type case.
1t must be bitter task to break up the
print again; but there is no help for it. The
extra fees charged elsewhere on authors for
corrections are not known; nobody COM
plains; author and publisher rival each
other in common endeavor after perfec-
ton. After such a corrected text the Paris
journal prints; and the TRANSACTIONS are done
in exactly the same way.-Cor. Allgemeine
